The Graduate Record Examinations test – shortened since 2023. Preparation as flexible private tuition.
The GRE General Test (ETS) is accepted by many graduate schools and, increasingly, business schools as an alternative to the GMAT. Since September 2023 it is significantly shorter (about 1 h 58 min): no unscored research section and no break.
| Section | Content | Tasks | Time | Score |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Analytical Writing | one task: “Analyze an Issue” | 1 | 30 min | 0–6 |
| Verbal Reasoning | reading, vocabulary, argumentation (2 sections) | 27 | 41 min | 130–170 |
| Quantitative Reasoning | arithmetic, algebra, geometry, data analysis (2 sections) | 27 | 47 min | 130–170 |
| Total | — | ~55 | ≈ 1 h 58 min | 260–340 |
The Analytical Writing measure now has only one task (“Analyze an Issue”, 30 min); the former “Analyze an Argument” task has been removed. Verbal and Quantitative are each scored 130–170 (1-point increments).
We prepare you exclusively as private tuition across all areas – tailored to your level and goals. For a strong Quantitative score we offer an intensive maths focus (GRE Math Plus).
